Verde is pleased to name Snap Distribution as its new UK home. Snap just received inventory of parts & accessories from Verde. Snap will introduce the new 2014 line of Verde Bikes in July.

“We’re confident that Snap is a great fit for Verde,” explained Steve Buddendeck; brand co-founder. “They represent a small number of brands, know what sells, and consistently received high praise from bike shops, media, our team riders, and Snap’s competitors.”

Like Greenhouse BMX in the states, Snap Distribution is 100% BMX. “We’re really excited to be working with everyone at Verde who all have deep roots in BMX,” says Rich Moore, Managing Director of Snap. “Verde is a great brand with one of the best teams in BMX so we look forward to working on growing them for the long term in the UK.”

Snap and Verde will work together to market and promote the brand in the UK. Verde sponsors UK pros Lima Eltham, Matt Priest, and Martyn Tambling.

This past October the crew from Signature BMX (our distributor in Finland) took a trip to Texas. Mikael Savolainen does it for Verde in Finland and here’s a quick little edit of him throwing down some lines at a fun little park in Pflugerville.

Our Australian distributor, Oceania Bicycles, just added Aussie shredder Josh Druce to the Verde team down under. Check out his welcome edit. Josh also reps for Hell On Wheels.

Pierre Hinze and Markus Wilke ride for Verde Germany through our distributor, Unity BMX. The whole Unity crew got together in Hamburg (where Unity’s headquartered) and this edit is the result.
